PEELING AND SCRAPING

Use a slight bucket angle, travel forward and hold lift control forward to start the cut. Make a short 5 to 8 foot angle cut and break out cleanly.

With bucket level, start a cut at notch approximately 2 inches deep. Hold depth by feathering bucket control to adjust cutting lip up or down. When front tires enter the notch, adjust lift cylinder to maintain proper depth.

Make additional passes until desired depth is reached. During each pass, use only bucket control while working depth. This will allow you to concentrate on controlling bucket angle to maintain a precise cut.
